Bell-Ringing

Learning to ring is an art which has been developed and passed on from one generation to another in Britain for hundreds of years. Bell-ringing is a wonderful blend of sport, music, exercise, friendship; a challenge to your wits and skill; very satisfying when you get it right; and a service to the church.

At All Saints’ we have a dedicated team who are more than willing to get you started, and anyone who is interested, or even just wants to see our historic bells, are welcome to visit us for bell-ringing practice between 7.00 – 9.00pm on Thursdays. It takes approximately six weekly sessions before you are able to ring on your own. We also have hand bells for younger members who would like join in.

Bells are the loud voice of the church, speaking out over the surrounding community. When we ring, for practice or for a service, we should never forget the reason for ringing.
